2. Warwick Words

Already underway, Warwick Words Festival runs until October 8, with venues across the town hosting events.

Its wide-ranging programme is a mix of talks, walks and tours spanning 2,000 years of history from the Romans to the Windsors.  

Guest speakers include Tracy Borman, Alison Weir, James Holland, Janina Ramirez, Michael Scott, Nicola Tallis and Dermot Turing who will be joined by a host of others.

The programme also features a new series of the popular Tea Time Talks, in association with the University of Warwick.

Festival Executive Director Helen Meeke said: "We’re sure Festival-goers will find something to enjoy whatever their interest as we journey back to early medieval Britain, Warwick in the 11th century, Tudor England and war-torn Europe in the 20th century. 

"Warwick Words is one of Warwick District Council’s four Creative Partners and we are grateful for the council’s continuing support."

Hatton Country World is hosting spooky screenings on Saturdays throughout October, with the first coming this weekend.

There will also be a choice of classic horror films at the drive-in cinema experience with two showings being held each day.

The films will include Saw, Friday 13th, Hocus Pocus, Scream, Rocky Horror, Beetle Juice, The Addams Family, Nightmare on Elm Street, Ghostbusters, and Final Destination.

"As the sun sets, our giant outdoor screen comes to life, showcasing classic horror movies that will send shivers down your spine," organisers said.

"Stay cosy inside your car as you watch the chilling tales unfold, and if you dare, roll down your windows to feel the eerie night air.

"Beware of surprises lurking in the shadows!"
